    SPORTS EQUIPMENT
    The present invention relates to the field of sports equipment, and in particular, sports equipment that can be used on water and snow.
    The population shows more interest in water sports and snow. Popular water and snow sports include sailing, windsurfing, water skiing and snowboarding. Most water and snow sports require the use of board-type sports equipment, such as aquaplane boards, snowboards and boats. Since the population often needs to move aquaplane boards, snowboards and other sports equipment when they practice water sports and snow, the requirements for such sports equipment are a light weight and enough firmness to withstand the collision and support the weight of a user. In addition, since water sports and snow sports are mostly done outdoors, sports equipment should also be able to withstand the testing of a hostile environment in the wild. Therefore, water sports and snow equipment must be made of materials that meet the requirements of resistance to erosion by seawater, alkalis and acids, and that can withstand long-term exposure to UV light from the sun, low temperature, high temperature, etc., to ensure long-term use.
    It is always very difficult for sports equipment to take both light weight and firmness into consideration. For example, a board has a volume of 120 cubic centimeters, but its weight is about 9 kilograms, so the weight of the material per cubic decimetre can only be 75 grams. Therefore, the materials used are all materials with a very low density. It seems very difficult to guarantee that the product is hard. Current manufacturing processes and selected materials are hampered by light weight or firmness and often have to sacrifice one to satisfy the other. Now a main process for the production of aquatic equipment and snow, a thermosetting technical plastic reinforced with fiber is used for the surface of the board core made of a cellular material to obtain a thin envelope enveloping the core. The envelope and soul are tied together to form a firm, one-piece body. It adopts the structural principle of eggs, that is to say, although the envelope is very thin, it always has an extraordinary firmness due to a structure in one piece. The equipment produced using this principle can have a relatively light weight under the precondition of a large volume and a certain hardness.
    Such existing equipment has defects in materials, structural design and production process, and is bulky, making storage and handling difficult. The main problems are:
    First, existing equipment must sacrifice firmness in order to achieve a light weight. As a result, the envelope is thin, which may be damaged by an external force. However, since water sports and snow sports are intense sports, it is difficult to avoid a collision.
    As a result, existing snow and water sport equipment is not sustainable.
    Secondly, the envelope of the existing equipment is made of a thermosetting technical plastic reinforced with fiber. The production of thermosetting plastic is highly dependent on manual operation, has very strict requirements for skill level and concentration of operators and accuracy of mixing chemicals, and is sensitive to weather conditions, temperature, moisture and other factors. A small mistake can lead to faulty products. In addition, once the chemical reactions of the thermosetting plastic are completed and cured, it can not be corrected. The defective products will suffer the fate of the waste as a whole. Existing production processes have cost-containment disadvantages, such as a high rate of product rejection and the scrapping of defective products.
    Thirdly, the existing equipment is based on the structural principle of eggs. The egg has a one-piece structure. Although the eggshell is thin, it can have a certain degree of firmness. However, if the thin shell of the existing equipment is damaged, no matter how small the damaged area is, the one-piece structure will be lost. The damaged area is the source of further expansion of the damage, and the equipment will ultimately suffer the fate of the waste as a whole.
    Fourth, such equipment is generally bulky, it is difficult to pay attention to both his head and his tail during a movement.
    Since it is easily damaged by its thin shell, it must be wrapped with highly protective materials as it is transported and worn. The packaging will become larger and heavier, leading to discomfort when transported and worn. The main objective of the present invention is to provide a firm, durable and lightweight sports equipment for water sports or snow sports.
    In order to achieve the main objective above, the present invention provides a sports equipment, comprising a main body made of lightweight and rigid material, a platform attached to the upper surface of the main body and configured to be harder than the main body. main body, and at least one frame located in the main body and configured to be harder than the main body.
    Preferably, the main body is made of cellular material.
    Preferably, the main body is fixed and connected to the platform by detachably fastening elements.
    Preferably, the fastening elements are locking elements, through which the main body, together with the framework, is fixed and connected to the platform.
    Preferably, the main body has slots for receiving the locking members, and through holes are provided in a central portion of the locking members to allow the passage of the frame; and screws are provided on the side of the locking elements facing the platform, which are configured to pass through the corresponding holes provided on the platform and are fixed to the platform by nuts. The frame may be of elongated shape and the main body may have elongated slots extending in the longitudinal direction to receive the frame.
    Preferably, the main body comprises a first portion and a second portion, which are detachably connected, each having a slot, and the frame being mounted in the slot of the first portion and the slot of the second portion, and the platform includes a first platform and a second platform, which are releasably connected.
    In addition, the frame may be of elongated shape, and the slot of the first part and the slot of the second part may both be of elongated shape to receive the frame, which extend along the longitudinal direction of the main body.
    Preferably, the sports equipment has two frames, which are mounted separately in the two slots which are provided on the main body and extend parallel along the longitudinal direction of the main body.
    Each of the frames may consist of three sections, the head section and the tail section are respectively disposed in the first portion and the second portion of the main body and the central section is mounted in the first portion and the second portion.
    Preferably, positioning grooves or recesses are provided on the upper surface of the main body, and positioning bulges are provided on the lower surface of the platform, which are nested in the positioning grooves or recesses.
    At least one accessory can be mounted directly on the platform or after passing through the main body. The sports equipment according to the present invention uses lightweight material with a certain rigidity, for example cellular material, to make a main body, rather than using a cellular material as a core as does the existing equipment. In addition, unlike the existing equipment, which adopts a hard shell enveloping a core of cellular material, the sports equipment according to the present invention comprises a hard platform on the surface of the main body made of cellular material, a frame The main body, the platform and the frame are connected in a single body by locking elements. Unlike the existing equipment, which provides for the installation of various accessories necessary for movements on a main body, the sports equipment according to the present invention provides the installation of accessories on a hard platform. Since the main body made of cellular material is rendered integrally with the hard platform, the accessories are installed equivalently on the main body.
    Since the present invention uses foam material to make a main body of sports equipment, it fulfills both requirements for sports equipment: lightweight and durability. However, sports equipment made of foam material has some limitations, for example the material is too soft to install accessories and lacks longitudinal rigidity when the body is long, and the upper surface of the soft material is not suitable for support a weight or for a stable position of a user on the sports equipment. To address the above limitations, the present application provides for a hard frame in the main body, and a hard platform on the main body, and uses locking elements to secure the frame and platform to the main body for to form an integrated piece of equipment and to give full play to the cellular material as the main body of the sports equipment.
    The present invention selects a cellular material to directly manufacture the main bodies of aquaplane boards, snowboards, boats and other sports equipment. Since the cellular material has several obvious advantages, including light weight, durability, not absorbing water, never sinking, having sufficient elasticity to cushion the collision during movement and handling, and resistant to acids, alkalis, seawater, UV light, low temperatures and high temperatures and other hostile environments, it is an ideal material for sports equipment for aquatic and snow sports .
    However, since the foam material is soft and of low density, it will face the following three limitations when used as the main body of sports equipment. The present invention proposes the following solution to cope with the limitations of the cellular material:
    The low density and soft texture of the foam material can cause the problem of inadequate longitudinal rigidity and hardness for long sports equipment. For example, a skateboard for upright or windsurfing is usually 2.5 m to more than 3 m long, but has a thickness of only 15 cm - 20 cm. The board body made only of cellular material of such length and thickness will have a low longitudinal rigidity and hardness. When there is an external force, it will bend and wiggle or swing, will be deformed as a whole and deviate from the original design form, and the effect of use will be poor and even an effect of basic sport can not be achieved.
    To address the above defects, the present invention provides a hard frame within a main body made of soft cellular material, and a hard platform on the surface of the main body, and then uses locking elements for firmly lock the frame and platform to the main body, providing enough longitudinal rigidity and hardness.
    To address the problem that it is difficult to stably and firmly install accessories (including, but not limited to: a center plank box, a drift box, a universal joint connection box, a sliding rail, a foot sleeve attachment piece, a tether strap attachment piece, a rear rudder and a hydrofoil wing) on the main body made of foam material with low density and soft texture for example, the accessories are capable of being removed by an external force, according to the present invention the accessories are not mounted directly on the main body made of soft foam material, but on a hard and firm platform. Attaching the accessories to a platform can fulfill the functional requirements of the accessories. Through locking elements, the platform and the main body made of cellular material are connected to form an integral body, and this is as if the accessories were mounted on the main body. In this way, not only are the requirements for a solid mounting of the accessories fulfilled, but also the attachment and connection of the accessories and the main body can be ensured.
    To address the problem that, because of the low density and soft texture of the foam material, when a user stands on the surface of the sports equipment, the surface sinks under the weight of the the user and the user can hardly stand stably, the present invention provides for securing a firm platform on the main body so that the platform supports the weight of the user and can endure the impact generated by support down following a wave jump, and the user can stand steadily on the surface of the sports equipment.
    To summarize, the hard frame used in the sports equipment according to the present invention can create the following two effects: to reinforce the longitudinal stiffness and the hardness of the main bodies of sports equipment of boat type or of board type, and to use as an anchor for linking the hard platform to the main body. The adoption of the hard platform creates the following five effects: in the first place, it reinforces the longitudinal rigidity and hardness of the main body. Second, it is used for mounting accessories. Third, it is used to support the weight of the user. Fourth, it allows the user to stand up. Fifth, it provides a connection between the front section and the rear section of the main body if the main body is divided into a front section and a rear section, to avoid separation of the two sections of the main body.

The sports equipment according to the present invention is a kind of sports equipment used on water or on snow, which can be a flat sports equipment, such as a skateboard standing, a surfboard, a Windsurfing, a windsurfing board, an aquaplane board, snowboarding, and can also be non-flat sports equipment, such as a small boat, a small sailing boat and a kayak.
    Embodiment 1:
    As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the sports equipment in this embodiment is a skateboard or windsurfing board on which a person can stand. It has a flat main body made of a rigid and lightweight material, for example a cellular material - a copolymer of vinyl acetate-ethylene (EVA). Since the foam material has the advantage of having a low density, a main body made of foam material can effectively reduce the weight of the sports equipment. A platform 30 is disposed on the main body 10. In this embodiment, the platform 30 is made of hard material, for example an epoxy resin reinforced with glass fiber, and is harder than the main body 10.
    Figure 2 shows a frame disposed within the main body 10 made of cellular material.
    As shown in Figure 3, the main body 10 is substantially oval in shape and includes a first portion 11 and a second portion 12, which are releasably connected. In other words, the first part 11 can be detached from the second part 12. Two slots 13 and 14 are provided on the main body 10 and parallel to each other along the longitudinal direction of the main body 10 Preferably, the two slots 13 and 14 are both provided inside the main body 10. In other words, they are not visible outside the main body 10. In addition, a part of the slot 13 is inside the first part 11 and the other part is inside the second part 12. Similarly, part of the slot 14 is inside the first part 11 and the other part is inside the second part 12.
    In this embodiment, the main body 10 is made of soft cellular material. In order to improve the hardness of the main body 10, two frames 17 and 18 are arranged on the main body 10, in particular the frame 17 is disposed inside the slot 13 and the frame 18 is arranged on the Inside the slot 14. Since the slot 13 is parallel to the slot 14, the frame 17 is also arranged parallel to the frame 18. In this embodiment, the frames 17 and 18 are made of reinforced epoxy resin fiberglass, or are made of aluminum alloy, and they are thus harder than the main body 10.
    As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the framework 17 and the framework 18 can be introduced into the slots 13 and 14 of the first portion 11 from the end face of the first portion 11 which is adjacent to the second part 12. Preferably, the frames 17 and 18 are mounted in close fit with the slots 13 and 14, respectively, thereby securely fixing the frames 17 and 18 in the slots 13 and 14.
    In order to securely fix the frames 17 and 18 and the platform 30 on the main body 10, a plurality of locking elements 20 are provided in this embodiment for fixing the frames 17 and 18 and the platform 30 on the body Therefore, as shown in Figure 6, a plurality of installation slots 15 are provided on the main body 10 and located within the slots 13 and 14, respectively. Thus, when the frames 17 and 18 are introduced into the slots 13 and 14, they also pass through the installation slots 15.
    Each installation slot 15 is provided with a locking element 20. All the locking elements 20 have the same structure. The locking member 20 comprises a locking body 21 of substantially rectangular shape. As shown in Fig. 7, there is a through hole 22 within the lock body 21, and the frame 18 can pass through the through hole 22. In this embodiment, the cross section of the frame 18 is round, so the cross section of the through hole 22 is also round. Preferably, the inner diameter of the through hole 22 is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the frame 18 so that the frame 18 can pass through the through hole 22 smoothly. Since the locking body 21 is rectangular, the installation slot 15 is also a rectangle. As shown in FIG. 8, the locking body 21 can be completely mounted inside the installation slot 15. In addition, a screw 25 is provided at the upper end of the locking body 21, and exposed to the above the installation slot 15. In addition, an external thread is provided on the screw 25 and a nut 38 can be screwed onto the screw 25.
    During the assembly of the sports equipment, first of all the frames 17 and 18 are mounted inside the main body 10. As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, after the frames 17 and 18 have been introduced into the slots 13 and 14 in the first part 11, they pass through the through holes 22 in the locking bodies 21 in the first part 11. In this way, part of the frames 17 and 18 is exposed to the outside of the first part 11. Then, as shown in Figures 9 and 10, the slots 13 and 14 of the second portion 12 are placed to directly face the exposed ends of the frames 17 and 18, then the second portion 12 is pushed in the direction of the first portion 11 so that the second portion 12 is joined with the first portion 11 to form a main body 10 in one piece. The frames 17 and 18 pass through the through holes 22 in the locking bodies 21 in the second part 12.
    The platform 30 is fixed on the upper surface of the main body 10. As shown in FIG. 11, the platform 30 in this embodiment comprises a first platform 31 and a second platform 32. As shown in FIG. 31 and the second platform 32 are connected together by two connecting rods 39, thus forming a platform 30 in one piece. Of course, the connection between the first platform 31 and the second platform 32 should be detachable. In other words, the connecting rods 39 can be removed, thus separating the first platform 31 from the second platform 32. In this way, the first platform 31 and the second platform 32 can be assembled or disassembled. For example, a specific angle is formed between the two connecting rods 39, and by introducing these into the right and left receiving holes of the platforms 31 and 32 at different angles, the platforms 31 and 32 are connected in a solid manner. to allow the assembly and disassembly of the platform 30. Of course, the connecting rods in this embodiment are only one example, and the first platform can be coupled to the second platform by other methods of detachable connection or connectors well known in the art.
    In this embodiment, in order to achieve a positioning between the platform 30 and the main body 10, a plurality of positioning bulges 35 are provided on the platform 30. Correspondingly, a plurality of positioning grooves 16 are provided on the main body 10. As shown in Figures 6 and 8, the positioning grooves 16 are on the surface of the main body 10, and sink downward from the surface of the main body 10. Preferably, the slots 15 are under the positioning grooves 16 and are narrower than the positioning grooves 16, so that the locking elements 20 can pass through the positioning grooves 16 and be mounted in the installation slots 15.
    The positioning bulges 35 of the platform 30 extend downwardly from the surface of the platform 30, and each locating bulge 35 corresponds to a locating groove 16. Therefore, the width of the locating bulges 35 is slightly smaller than that of the positioning grooves 16. In addition, a through hole 36 is provided in the middle of each locating bulge 35, and the screw 25 of the locking members 20 passes through the through hole 36 and extends to the top. On the screw 25, a nut 38 can be screwed. Preferably, the nut 38 is located above the platform 30, namely that the nut 38 is screwed onto the screw 25 from the top of the platform 30. As shown in FIG. 8, after the nut 38 is screwed onto the screw 25, the platform 30 and the frames 17 and 18 can be fixed to the main body 10 to form a body in one piece.
    Of course, sports equipment typically needs to be provided with a plurality of accessories, such as a number of foot sleeves and fins. These accessories can be fixed on the platform 30. As shown in FIGS. 13 and 14, after the platform 30 is fixed on the main body 10, accessories, such as foot sleeves 40 and fins 41, can be mounted on the platform 30, a number of threaded holes are reserved on the platform 30, screws, etc., are used to attach sleeves for the feet and drifts on the platform 30, and the fins 30 pass the holes reserved on the main body 10 and out of the main body 10. Since the material of the platform 30 is hard, accessories attached to the platform 30 do not fall easily from the platform 30. In addition, since the platform 30 is fixed on the main body 10 by locking elements 20, the accessories are also fixed in an equivalent manner on the main body 10.
    Embodiment 2: The sports equipment in this embodiment is an aerotracted board. Since the aerotracted board has a small volume, it is not necessary to design the main body in two sections. As a result, it is not necessary to design the platform in two sections. As shown in Figure 15, the sports equipment includes a main body 50 made of cellular material. As shown in Fig. 16, two slots 51 and 52 are provided inside the main body 50 and both are concealed in the main body 50, ie the slots 51 and 52 should not be visible on the surface of the main body 50. main body 50.
    In order to improve the hardness of the main body 50, two frames 53 and 54 are disposed inside the main body 50 and introduced into the slots 51 and 52, respectively. In this embodiment, the frames 53 and 54 may be made of fiberglass reinforced epoxy resin, or be made of aluminum alloy, to ensure that they are harder than the main body 50. Accordingly, the slots 51 and 52 may have openings on the side face of the main body 50. As shown in Figures 16 and 17, the frames 53 and 54 may be introduced into the slots 51 and 52 from one side of the housing. main body 50, and they pass through the through holes of the locking bodies in the main body 50.
    A platform 60 is disposed on the main body 50 and made of hard material, such as an epoxy resin reinforced with fiberglass. Since the main body 50 does not adopt a two-section structure, it is also not necessary for the platform 60 to adopt a two-section structure, and an integral structure can be adopted. In order to secure the platform 60 and the frames 53 and 54 to the main body 50, a plurality of installation slots may be provided on the main body 50, and all are on the slots 51 and 52. A locking member may be arranged in each installation slot. The structure of the locking elements is the same as the structure of the locking elements in the first embodiment, that is to say comprising a locking body in which a through-hole is provided, and the frames 53 and 54 can pass through the through holes of the locking elements.
    Further, a plurality of locating recesses 55 are provided on the main body 50, and a plurality of locating bulges 61 are provided on the platform 60. As shown in Figures 17 and 18, each locating bulge 61 may be mounted within a locating recess 55. Preferably, each locating recess 55 is above an installation slot so as to ensure that the locking elements are under the locating grooves and the protrusions. In addition, screws are provided on the locking elements, the upper end of each screw being able to pass through a positioning bulge 61 of the platform 60, and finally, nuts can be used to lock the screws. thus securing the platform 60 and the frames 53 and 54 within the main body 50 to form a one-piece body.
    Of course, a plurality of accessories can be arranged on the platform 60. As shown in FIG. 18, accessories, such as sleeves for the feet 62 and fins 63 can be mounted on the platform 60. They can be fixed on the platform 60 with for example screws or rivets. Since the platform is hard, disengagement of the accessories attached to the platform 60 can be avoided. In addition, the platform 60 is also attached to the main body 50, so the accessories are equivalently attached to the main body 50.
    It appears that the main body of the sports equipment according to the present invention is made of cellular material, which has the advantages of not absorbing water, stable physical properties, resistance to acids and alkalis, a long service life, high elasticity and resistance to collision, long-term seawater erosion, UV light and low and cold temperatures, and requirements for water sports and snow. In addition, in order to improve the hardness of the sports equipment, a frame is arranged inside the main body and made of epoxy resin reinforced with fiberglass or aluminum alloy, a hard platform is arranged on the main body and made of fiberglass reinforced epoxy resin, and the frame and platform materials are both stable and durable.
    In addition, the production method of the sports equipment according to the present invention is simpler than that of the existing sports equipment, and can greatly reduce the probability of errors. In the existing production process, the main body casing is made of fiber and thermosetting plastic techniques. The chemical forming process of thermosetting plastic is very sensitive to changes in temperature, humidity and other environmental and climatic factors, which often lead to an incomplete chemical reaction, causing a high rate of product rejection. Moreover, in the existing production process of sports equipment, manual work represents a significant percentage, the procedures are complicated, the time control will have to be very precise and the doses of chemicals will have to be precise, so that manufacturers must have a certain level of skill and concentration. Over-reliance on manual labor often leads to rejections due to negligence or human error.
    In comparison, the sports equipment according to the present invention uses mainly cellular material to make the main body. The main body may be made in a mold by an injection molding or compression molding process. The production processes for platforms, frames and other modular parts are mainly machine-made, which is less dependent on human intervention and is not affected by environmental factors. The assembly of finished products only needs a few simple manual steps, greatly reducing the rate of product rejection caused by human factors.
    In addition, the present invention also solves the problems of durability and repair of sports equipment. The envelope of the existing sports equipment is made of fiber and thermosetting plastic techniques. In order to meet the requirements of light weight, the envelope is thin. It is very likely that it will be damaged in the event of a collision. The production process of the existing sports equipment relates to the principle of imitating the integral structure of the eggs in order to achieve a light weight and a firmness in a large volume. The envelope and the core of cellular material need to be formed in a synchronized manner to achieve integration of a sealed structure. Only for this reason, when the envelope is broken, although it can be repaired, the complete one-piece structure has been destroyed and no longer exists. The repaired location is a source of further expansion of the damage. In the end, the sports equipment will suffer the fate of the waste as a whole. In addition, repaired fiber reinforced plastic equipment requires specialized technologies and the cost of repair is high.
    In comparison, the main body of the sports equipment according to the present invention has a very high elasticity. It is not easily damaged by collision and is highly durable and rarely needs repair. In addition, the main body consists of a few sections. Even if a section is too severely broken to be repaired, only this section needs to be replaced. Sports equipment will then return to normal condition and the equipment as a whole will not be scrapped. The sports equipment according to the present invention is superior to existing sports equipment in durability and repair aspects.
    Alternatively, in the above embodiments, the framework may consist of a plurality of sections. For example, the frame is made of two sections, and each section of the frame is placed inside a section of the main body. Or, even if the main body is a one-piece body, the framework may still consist of two or more sections.
    As another example, in the first embodiment, the frame consists of three sections, the head section and the tail section of the frame are disposed inside the slots of the first part and the second part, and the central section is disposed at the same time within the corresponding slots of the first and second parts.
    Alternatively, in the above embodiments, regardless of whether the main body and the platform are integral or segmented, methods of attachment and bonding may be adopted, including chemical or physical processes, for attaching the hard platform to the upper surface of the main body, while the frame can be arranged beforehand inside the main body. It is only necessary to connect together the segmented main body and the platform.
    In the embodiments above, the connection and positioning between the platform and the main body are not limited to the above description and may also adopt other forms of fasteners.
    In addition, the present invention is advantageous in the transport and wearing aspects. The existing sports equipment is one piece and bulky, and is not easy to handle and wear. In addition, in order to protect the weak and brittle envelope from a collision, it usually needs a highly protective and thick packaging during transport, increasing both volume and weight and making the handling more difficult. The sports equipment according to the present invention can be separated into a plurality of short and small modules. The user can handle and wear them separately. For example, they can be placed in the limited space of a passenger compartment or a trunk and transported by public means of transport. In addition, since the main body is highly elastic, it does not require extra-protective packaging and its volume and weight are not increased.
    At the same time, the sports equipment according to the present invention is easier to move. Since existing sport equipment is a large, one-piece piece of equipment, the user must be strong enough to carry it from a storage area or parking lot to a site of use. By comparison, the product according to the present invention can be separated into smaller modules and worn in several times, so even a weak woman or children can easily wear them. The sports equipment according to the present invention not only improves the aforementioned defects of the existing sports equipment, but also has the following advantages:
    The first is the advantage for local or overseas transport. Compared to existing sports equipment, it is similar in terms of volume and overall weight, but logistic transport and air mail impose a limitation on the length of packages. The existing sports equipment is a one piece piece and in general it exceeds the length limit, so that it is not accepted by the carriers, while the sports equipment according to the present invention can be separated into smaller modular pieces and kept in a plurality of packets not exceeding the length limit, so that it is accepted for logistic transport and air shipment. In addition, the main body is highly elastic and does not easily damage by collision, a very protective and thick conditioning as required by the existing sports equipment is not necessary. A small volume and low weight can also save money on freight.
    The second is the benefit for storage. The existing sports equipment is a one piece piece with a large volume and has some requirements for storage space. By comparison, sports equipment according to the present invention can be separated into smaller modular pieces and stored in small and scattered domestic spaces. In addition, the main body is not easily damaged by collision and has lower requirements in terms of storage conditions.
    The third is the advantage of using a standard equipment during a trip. Travelers often hope to use the equipment they often use to avoid renting unfamiliar equipment they have to adapt to. Since the existing sports equipment is a one-piece, bulky piece and may be damaged during transport, it is not suitable for transportation and use during a trip. By comparison, the product according to the present invention is separated into smaller modular parts, and its main body is not easily damaged by collision, it can be sent as easily as luggage and is suitable for use at the destination. . Users can use the sports equipment with which they are familiar.
    The fourth is the benefit of being safe for adjacent users on the water. Since the exposed portion of the sports equipment according to the present invention is of soft cellular plastic material, it is not a hard material. When used on the water with many people, this reduces the chance of hurting other swimmers as a result of a collision.
    The fifth is the advantage of allowing the free and practical addition of accessories. If the accessories are mounted with a number of holes drilled on the hard platform or on the main body, no water will enter the main body as is the case with existing sports equipment, which would lead to increased the weight of the equipment. When holes are drilled on existing sports equipment to install accessories, it is complex and expensive to prevent entry of water. Installing accessories on existing sports equipment is not as convenient and easy as with the present invention.
    The sixth is the advantage of being more suitable for recreational light boats worn by yachts and sailing boats than existing sports equipment. The sports equipment according to the present invention can be separated into small modular pieces, has lower requirements in terms of storage space and can be elastically placed in limited spaces of sailboat and yacht cabins. . In addition, the main body is made of lightweight and soft alveolar material. When the yacht or sailing boat is waved in waves, the collision of sports equipment that has broken off will not damage the boat or hurt users. Due to its low storage space requirements and the safety of soft material, it is more suitable than existing sport equipment for recreational light boats carried by yachts and sailing boats.
    Finally, it should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the foregoing embodiments. For example, depending on the actual need, the main body or platform is divided into three or more module sections, or one or more frames or three or more frames are disposed within the main body, or different frame shapes are adopted, or the platform for mounting accessories is not on the surface of the main body but is sandwiched in the main body. Such changes may be made without departing from the scope of the present invention.
